In this paper, a method to evaluate the flexibility of aggregates of domestic electric water heaters is proposed and applied to the Italian case. Flexibility is defined as the capability of the aggregate to vary its power demand for a given time interval. The evaluation method consists of a Monte Carlo analysis, that uses the thermal model of...

In this paper, a method to quantify the flexibility of aggregates of domestic heat-pump electric water heaters for the provision of system services is proposed. Flexibility is defined as the capability of the aggregate to modify its power demand for a given time interval. The method uses the dynamical model of the water heaters and a stochastic...

Nowadays the management of interconnected transmission systems requires security assessment methods able to consider uncertainties due to the increasing presence of renewable generation. Furthermore, also the electrical demand is characterized by a certain level of variability which affects the accuracy of the expected consumption profiles....
